I was about to post a message... but I can't get the message board to except Markdown.

None of the icon links are inserting anything into the text message. When I tried to manually include code snippet back quote marks with language (`` `foxpro FUNCTION ) nothing happened. Can't bold, quote, and none of the H2-H5 work.

One other thing, "remember my password" at login is also not working. I have to reenter it almost every time I use the message board. And I'm only going to the message board from the same development machine.

Best--

Hmmm... works for me. Can you retry?

I did update scripts last week, so maybe this is a caching issue. Post page then press Ctrl-Shift-R to refresh the page and force reloading of all resources.

As to login - not sure on that either. I'm running the message board on 5 different devices and login is remembered on all of them so pretty sure this works. Timeout for the login is 15 days (changed recently from 7)...

This is a test message...

? 'hellow world'

Guess cache reload <alt><ctrl>R was the correct solution.

Thanks

Great. There were a couple of issues that I ended up fixing, but all should be well now.

There's now also logic that uses chache-busting on the scripts used on the message board which should help with caching related issues in the future.
